I'm so lazy...

brigdhSo, for my 4-H project I have to write either a story or three poems. And it's due the 10th.
Of this month.
And I still have no idea what I'm going to write about. Okay, I have a kinda, vague-ish sorta idea, to do three poems that interlock with each other, and with the different types of love as a theme (cuz, really, when do I write about anything *other* than love?) but it's not so much an idea as it is a fuzzy 'maybe-this'd-be-neat' thought.
Usually, I have a basic outline and even a few lines word-for-word all thought out before I even get a pen. I don't understand people who say they have to write the story so they know how it ends. I know how it ends before I know how it begins.
But this time- I have nothing. Which wouldn't be such a big deal, except I have *five* *days*. And I really should mail it, so that's more like two days. But I'll probably just make my dad drive all the way across the county at night on the 10th to get it in in time, and get yelled at for not finishing it sooner.
But I'm really stuck. I promised myself that I'd sit down and write this afternoon, even if I had nothing to say, but I spent all day in bed sniffling from a major attack of allergies.
So, this'll all probably end with me not sleeping at all on the 9th, but I really wish I could be done with this just once, before the day before it's due.
